SharkNinja Vulnerability Disclosure Policy

SharkNinja and its affiliates (“SharkNinja”) are committed to protecting the confidentiality of consumer and employee personal information and the availability of its websites and information systems. This policy is intended to give security researchers clear guidelines for conducting vulnerability discovery activities and to convey our preferences in how to submit discovered vulnerabilities to us for review. We encourage you to contact us to report vulnerabilities in our websites, systems and products. 

If you make a good faith effort to comply with this policy during your security research, we will consider your research to be authorized we will work with you to understand and resolve reported issues quickly.  SharkNinja will not recommend or pursue legal action related to your research. 

Please note that SharkNinja does not operate a bug bounty program and makes no offer of reward or compensation in exchange for submitting potential security concerns or vulnerabilities. 

Guidelines 

SharkNinja suggests the following guidelines for researchers who may report a vulnerability or conduct legitimate research. Under this policy, “research” means activities in which you: 

  • Notify us as soon as possible after you discover a real or potential security issue 
  • Make every effort to avoid privacy violations, degradation of user experience, disruption to production systems and destruction or manipulation of data 
  • Only use exploits to the extent necessary to confirm the presence of a vulnerability 
  • Do not use an exploit to compromise or exfiltrate data, establish persistent unauthorized access or use the exploit to pivot to other systems 
  • Provide us with a reasonable amount of time to resolve the issue before you disclose it publicly 

Once you’ve established that a vulnerability exists or encounter any sensitive data (including personally identifiable information, financial information, or proprietary information or trade secrets of any party), you must stop your test, notify us immediately, and not disclose this data to anyone else.
